A Good Basic Introduction
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is a surprisingly useful book for being so small. Suzanne Swedo has over twenty years of experience as a teacher of outdoor survival skills. It shows.The author knows that most survival situations are resolved within 48 hours, so she concentrates on the issues that matter most during that time including signaling for help, staying adequately warm (fire, clothing, shelter), and how to keep yourself adequately hydrated. She also includes a useful list of equipment to take along and some good tips on what to do if you become lost.This book is small enough to take along with you out into the backcountry, but you might want to put it inside a plastic bag if you do so because (unlike some other survival manuals) it's not written on rain-resistant paper.This book does a good job of helping you to learn what you will need, how urgently you will need it, and how you could get it in an outdoor survival situation.
